Southern 2-8-0 722 |
| Description: |
Southern Railway 2-8-0 722 was being service at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal. This was the locomotive's first visit to New Orleans, and it was the first year for Southern steam excursions out of the city. While steam excursions operated out of New Orleans almost every year until 1985, the 722 would only return to the city one more time, for the annual convention of the National Railway Historical Society in 1973. The oval on the tender was the shadow of an overhead lamp. |

NOPSI 79 and 904 |
| Description: |
New Orleans Public Service car 904 was turning from Carondolet Street onto Canal Street as it completed a trip over the ST. CHARLES line from South Claiborne Avenue; while bus number 79, on the left, was just beginning a run out to Lake Pontchartrain on the CANAL-LAKESHORE via PONTCHARTRAIN BLVD route. The 904 was a Perley Thomas car built in 1923 and the 79 was a GMC model TDH-5391 built in 1961, so almost 40 years separated the two modes of transportation. |

Dispatching Office |
| Description: |
Southern Railway CRESCENT DIVISION dispatcher Guy C. Wilemon was at work in the station at Hattiesburg, Mississippi on 13 June 1982. Most of the time there was one dispatcher here and his territory included the Alabama Great Southern between Chattanooga and Meridian, and the New Orleans & Northeastern between Meridian and New Orleans, but on first trick weekdays there was additional dispatcher for the NO&NE. The CTC board covered the former AGS between Birmingham and Meridian. It had been installed at Birmingham in late 1951 when the second main track was removed between those two locations; but it was relocated to Hattiesburg around 1965 when the AGS dispatchers were relocated here. The AGS and the NO&NE became the CRESCENT DIVISION in 1968 and the NO&NE was merged into the AGS in 1969. The Norfolk Southern merged the CRESCENT DIVISION into the ALABAMA DIVISION in 1987, and the Hattiesburg dispatchers moved to Birmingham in 1989. |

Dispatching Office |
| Description: |
Southern Railway CRESCENT DIVISION Chief Dispatcher John G. Hudson was making an entry on his train sheet in the division dispatching office. The dispatching office and division headquarters were located in the Hattiesburg, Mississippi depot. The CRESCENT DIVISION consisted of the Alabama Great Southern and the New Orleans & Northeastern railroads, so this office controlled the main line between New Orleans and Chattanooga, plus a few branches. The AGS dispatchers moved here from Birmingham around 1965, and all of the dispatchers moved back to Birmingham in 1989, after the Norfolk Southern merged the CRESCENT DIVISION into the ALABAMA DIVISION in 1987. The wooden box under the microphone allowed the dispatcher to select specific microwave antennae for communicating with trains, etc. |

The rusty track on the right was the unused connection between the KCS and the NS, and the two tracks on the extreme right had been the KCS-NS interchange tracks. |

Lachaussee Siding |
| Description: |
Jerome ("Jerry" as he became known on the railroad) Lachaussee is a native of Pascagoula, Mississippi, hired on with the Louisville & Nashville on June 3, 1959, as an Extra Agent-Operator. He worked at various locations between Mobile and New Orleans for the first ten years of his service. Being promoted to Train Dispatcher at Mobile on March 16, 1965, he concurrently worked in both capacities until attaining a regular position as dispatcher at Mobile in 1969. Just a few years after L&N was absorbed into CSX Transportation Company, a new centralized dispatching office was opened in Jacksonville Florida; the Mobile office became history on January 15, 1989, and Jerry and his family moved and worked there until his retirement on February 28, 2002. He and his family subsequently moved back to Mississippi. On retirement from CSX he was presented with a Seiko wrist watch. Then, three months later, he was surprised with another honor: his very own siding! Jerry and his wife Barbara were invited to a dinner in Mobile on June 10, and the next day were chauffeured north along I-65 about 100 miles where they participated in the dedication of a new 2-mile-long siding named LACHAUSSEE. The siding runs from Mile 561.7 to Mile 563.8, near the community of Owassa, between Georgiana and Evergreen. In this photo Jerry was waving to the crew of southbound piggyback train No. 145 while a local waits in the siding. |
